Plastic drawing: everything there is to know about it<\/span><\/h1>\n

Plasticol<\/strong><\/a>, located in Samarate, near Varese, is one of the most well-known Italian businesses<\/strong> in the plastic extrusion<\/strong><\/a> field. Whether the raw material is PVC, polyurethane, ABS or polyethylene, Plasticol is able to create great quality and sturdy products<\/strong>, commonly used in many different industrial sectors, such as pipes<\/a>, cables, and gaskets<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other than extrusion, to manufacture those amazing finished goods that we sell to our international clients Plasticol\u2019s workmen use another popular technique<\/strong> called drawing<\/strong>. The goods obtained through the plastic drawing process are very similar to the ones obtained through extrusion. In Plasticol we combine the two manufacturing processes<\/strong>, so to offer only perfect products to our clients: both extrusion and drawing are essential processes in order to provide all finished items with some very important characteristics.<\/span><\/p>\n

Plastic drawing: how does the process work?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Drawing<\/strong> is a very simple procedure<\/strong> which uses tensile forces to stretch materials<\/strong>. This process may involve many types of materials such as metal, glass and, obviously, plastic. We can refer to this last specific process as plastic drawing or cold drawing<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>\n

The type of force used in this last process is the main difference between drawing and extrusion, in fact, the first one stretches the material whereas the second compresses it.<\/span><\/p>\n

After the extruder is done doing its job, workmen put the goods into the plastic drawing machinery<\/strong> which drags them into a mold that is smaller in diameter and thickness than the extruded items.<\/span><\/p>\n

Based on the clients\u2019 needs, the extruded products<\/strong> can be shaped using a mold that can change their thickness<\/strong> (in this case we use a cylindrical tube-expander) or both their diameter and thickness<\/strong> (in this case we use a conical tube-expander).<\/span><\/p>\n

The drawing process<\/strong> starts with tapering one<\/strong> end<\/strong> of the extruded plastic good, so it\u2019s easier for the machinery to pull it in. Once the equipment is switched on, the hooks grab the product<\/strong> and drag it into the mold<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>\n

Plasticol likes to offer the best service possible<\/strong> to its clients and that\u2019s the reason why we use only the most efficient machinery available<\/strong> on the market; in this particular process we use a special time-saving equipment, able to perform tandem drawing on our extruded products. The drawn products are then stored and, if requested by the client, can undergo a digital print process.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks to our team of professionals, Plasticol guarantees to all its clients excellent quality products<\/strong> that meet even the highest standards. <\/span><\/p>\n
